Bears coach Lovie Smith says he is prepared to let QBs Rex Grossman and Kyle Orton compete for the starting job all the way through the final preseason game. It'll be like Ali-Frazier. Well, maybe more like Frank Bruno-Carl "The Truth" Williams. But exciting nonetheless.

In our never-ending quest to dispense unsolicited advice, here are some suggestions for Smith on how to pick his QB:

10. Whoever survives a boat trip with Cedric Benson

9. Shots of Jack Daniels (advantage, Orton)

8. Wait for inevitable un-retirement of Brett Favre

7. Fan balloting (including the deceased, of course)

6. Flies-shagging competition vs. Alfonso Soriano

5. The one with the most Manning blood

4. Leave it up to the superdelegates

3. Why did we get rid of the single-wing again?

2. First to get his QB rating into double digits

1. The guy who stinks the least

C'mon Pete, the Bears have been using #1 for many years now.....

11. survivor of a tag-team vs. Kimbo Slice

Just line up Hester 30 yards behind the snapper and run a punt return formation every down.

12. The one who "Just looks like he's having fun out there"

The **** traded away my favourite player in order to make room for Vanderdrunk.

They traded Pre? To where? for what?....why????????

Socrates,

He was traded to Edmonton for a bag of football and a draft pick.

WWKD? (what would Kari do?)

13. Hottest girlfriend

June 2, 2008  10:47 AM ET

Best neck beard... (big advantage to Orton)

Did the Argos at least get some maple-tips cleats in return for Prefontaine?

The Alouettes could have traded for Prefontaine and got rid of their kicker.....oh wait, he's the son-in-law of the team President, scratch that....

MungoDM

They ended up with a first round pick, could you imagine that in the NFL, trade a kicker for a first rounder?

I would like to give the Bears' starting QB job to the QB who is able to deflect all Donovan McNabb-to-the-Bears rumors with the most prolific prose.

WOO-HOO! Only four more days till the weekend!!!

June 2, 2008  10:54 AM ET

Bring back Jim McMahon

Actually it's better than that....it's a 1st round pick in the CANADIAN college draft.

Now, my cousin's son plays for the BC Lions and I was happy he got drafted, but the most important thing in the CFL are the neg list rights, not the Canadian College draft.

June 2, 2008  10:55 AM ET

Smuggle in a bootleg QB from Canada.

June 2, 2008  10:55 AM ET

I think Grossman and Orton should play Russian Roulette. The one who doesn't shoot himself in the head is the starting QB.

June 2, 2008  10:55 AM ET

Bring back Doug Flutie.

I think the Bears might be able to get Joey Harrington pretty cheap...

That might be the record for earliest countdown to the weekend. Are you heading on vacation? Why the buildup?
